Rickman a British government official and statistician drafted the bill that became the 1800 Census Act which established for the first time a national decennial census of Britain's general population. Rickman had been arguing for a national census since at least 1798 claiming that it would provide essential information to Britain's political military and industrial leaders-as well as giving a stimulus to the life insurance business! His arguments were given an additional boost with the publication of Malthus's Essay on the Principle of Population 1798 which spurred concerns about Britain's population and helped to break down resistance to the idea of compiling national population statistics. After the Census Bill passed Rickman helped to carry out the first four British censuses which included not only a population count but also the collection and analysis of parish register returns. .

1787réf. 135132Madrid: En la Imprenta Real 1787. First nationwide Spanish census First edition of Spain's first nationwide census the census of 1787. The first census in Spain was undertaken in Castile as early as 1594 and there was a census of the Spanish Empire in 1776 but this was the first which embraced the whole country. It is sometimes known as the Census of Floridablanca after the reformist prime minister Count Floridablanca under whom it was undertaken from 1785 to 1787. The 43 tables list the regions of Spain alphabetically from Andalucia to Valencia but also include the Balearic and Canary Islands. The data accounts for the number of persons their ages religious affiliation and social status. The final population count is 10409879. Although the census did display modern demographic techniques the attempts to classify the population on class and occupation proved too rudimentary - servants were not classified in any consistent way and the scope of the hidalgo class varied considerably from region to region. Even so the census was a considerable demographic achievement and remains studied in modern Spanish demography; it is considered more accurate than the subsequent Spanish census of 1797.
